Re: slipper basket

I like this idea a lot! But how many do you buy? My guest list is looking to be around 300 people! Obviously the guys wouldnt get a pair (haha), and the older people wouldn't either (i would hope)...and do you get various sizes? Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks!!

I had 15 pairs for 105 ppl. I bought sizes 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

Re: slipper basket

I was told to get about half of your guests, but with a huge guest list I would cut down that number. The colors are your option...I got lots of different one in varying sizes.

Re: slipper basket

i got mine at old navy when they were on sale they were $1.25 each but michaels always has them for $1.
I got multiple colors (but not really colors...black, silver & grey) and am going to put pink ribbons on the basket (my girls are wearing black hence the boring colors).
I am guessing i will have about 225 people and got about 80 pairs. I figured obvi the guys dont want and i thought some of the older guests wouldnt want any either.
I also figured that getting more of the large sizes is better bc people can always wear bigger but cant wear smaller. my breakdown was:
6 pairs of size 6
12 pairs of size 7
25 pairs of size 8
25 pairs of size 9
12 pairs of size 10

I have no idea if that is a good breakdown or not but thats what i did lol
